Fellowship & Scholarship

Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarships (OURS)

The Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarships (OURS), established in 1997, is a center charged with integrating undergraduates more fully into the vital research life of the university. The center works to increase undergraduate and faculty collaboration in research, to support greater participation in research by faculty and students, to promote existing research activities and programs on campus, and to develop resources and funding necessary to expand undergraduate research opportunities, thus enhancing student learning and satisfaction.

Scholarship Connection

Scholarship Connection is UC Berkeley's clearinghouse for information on scholarships that are funded by sources outside the University. The Scholarship Connection website is run by the Office of Undergraduate Research and Prestigious Scholarships (OUR). They receive hundreds of scholarship notices each year. Competition for these awards may be local, national, or international in scope, and scholarship deadlines and requirements vary.
